Amazon.co.uk Review
Moby is an ambitious man, both musically and philosophically, and that quality seeps into every aspect of iEverything Is Wrong/i, from the wunderkind DJing that stretches the genre limits of techno to the angry, antiestablishment manifesto on the CD sleeve. The record's opening salvo of dancey club music sets the listener up for "All That I Need Is to Be Loved", which, out of nowhere, bludgeons would-be club kids with tuneless, mad vocals and punked-out guitar solos. The same bait-and-switch formula repeats twice on the CD at almost regular intervals in the industrial shriek of "What Love" and the sudden, slow, and acoustic bent and folksy vocals of "Into the Blue". All three shifts are jarringly abrupt. However, dance-floor continuity is in Moby's blood, and he uses these songs as parts one, two, and three of the underlying rage that drives the record's concept. Without these three tracks, in fact, you'd have a moody yet convincingly cohesive dance-athon, bouncing between house breakbeats ("Feeling So Real", "Bring Back My Happiness") and blissed-out trance ("God Moving Over the Face of the Waters"). Instead, Moby expresses his bewildered and desperate view of modern life by periodically yanking away the escape of blind, danceable ecstasy, using that discontinuity to express the eyes-wide-open ruminations of a furious idealist. i--Matthew Cooke /i

I bought this album on the strength of 'feeling so real'and I was truly amazed, not so much at the wide spectum of sound but at the soul of the music. If ever anyone could claim to be inspired by God it is this man and his music. This album goes beyond fashion, trend and genre and lifts the spirit, just wallow in this album, I have for several years now and continue to do so. Can I give this 10 stars?

This is an incredibly varied but beautiful collection of songs from one of the most underrated musicians in history. Like he has done so many times, Moby brings together a blend of exotic sounds and inspired lyrics and creates something that just has to be loved. The tracks jump around from techno to punk, then to chill out and back to techno but manage to remain strangely coherent and original. Ok, it is not as good as Play, but what is?pIf you like dance music then I insist you buy this, and any other Moby albums while you#8217;re at it.
Eclectically wonderful. And a little bit mad. October 10, 2000

Despite some tracks now having a distinctly dated sound, this album is an essential purely for the fact that it is a classic. Feeling so Real is perhaps at one end of the album's wide spectrum of musical genre, some of the punk metal style tracks at the other. Behind all of this is some subtley beautiful ambient music, and the overall effect of such a truly varied album is to reinforce Moby's position as one of the most flexible and maleable artists of our time. The sleeve contains typical Moby essays (eat vegetables! save the trees! etc). All in all, brilliant to listen to late at night in the car.

Yup. This is simply the best Moby, from the untouchable "God Moving Over The Face Of Waters" to the angry "What Love" this album has it all.
br /It's an album which mixes his club roots and the ambient-ish electronica of "Porcelian'.
br /Basically this album rules and pointless club acts of today should take note at Moby: perhaps the ONLY superstar of Electronica.

Set it up DJ!, For those of you who are late comers to the wonderful World of Moby this is, indeed, the perfect forerunner to Play. A Blinding Album with total feeling and emotion pumping all the way through. The beauty of Into the blue and God moving over waters sit comfortably next to the uplifting hardcore of Everything is wrong and Feeling so reel. Admittedly the Punky tracks kinda fall flat on my Ears, but I can Ignore them simply because the rest of it is so good. Go on, get it, put it in your CD player, and dance around the room like a madman, you WON'T regret it.
